hello everyone, this is Alan and it's my first post here at the hps-online.com blog. I'll be contributing from time to time here with my own posts, thoughts, and experiences regarding HPS colon cleansing, the lifestyle of an HPS cleanser, and what it means and the vast benefits of using the HPS colon cleansing program to take personal responsibility for oneself.
Today, though being a little late, i'd like to post some info on a program on CBS tonight i believe. as far as taking personal responsibility for oneself goes the incredible men and women portrayed in the tv program on CBS are impeccable examples.
i hope you can see it in time.
with Gratitude, loving kindness to you
your friend, alan

Cleansing is NOT easy. But then again, anything of any value in life isn't.
Cleansing properly is not easy, and anyone who says it is isn't really giving us the full picture.
It requires some investments, it requires some time, and it requires some efforts.
But, on the other hand, my experiences have been that it is A LOT EASIER than everything else promoted for attaining and maintaining good health.
Maybe my below experiences resonate with you, with your experiences....
When I was in my 20's, I spent time and again, year after year, year in and year out money, effort, and time in gym's... but nothing really came out of that with regards to attaining or sustaining good health.
I was led like a sheep following the pack into believing that it would, because after all, one just assumes if one ends up looking like all those body builders, one would have good health.
But I discovered that I didn't have the discipline to go to a gym 3 or 5 times a week. And I discovered that my body burned out quickly; some days or weeks I could do all the reps, some I couldn't.
And I discovered pain, consistently in different parts of my body, and injuries. And every time there was an injury, I had to stop going to the gym, and it was darn hard to restart it all a month or two later. Sooner rather than later the visits to the gym fell to the wayside.
Same happened with yoga.
I discovered yoga in my early twenties, while at university.
That was 30 years ago.
Initially, like most guys then, I went and signed up for a social reason, to meet girls. But once we started with the course, I saw right away the benefits beyond social networking.
But again, like at the gym, it required a lot of effort. The yoga classes were in the late afternoons, long after I had already left the university premises... so I had to get in the car and go back just for the yoga classes, or I had to hang around the university for hours even though I wanted long ago to go home as my other classes were over.
And I couldn't deal with the ongoing nature of it... for weeks and months on end seems like I had to make a lot of effort to get to the classes. It was a constant hassle and drag.
Oh sure, there was some physical benefits, but it never transformed my health right out the gate... and then I learned that to transform my health it would take years. Just the thought of two or three times a weeks, one to two hours a session, forever, well, just that thought was enough for me to drop it.
And the same happened with herbal supplements.
For years I spent hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars on buying and consuming herbal supplements.
I was popping pills left and right, this antioxidant, these vitamins, this multi mineral, that specific supplement for that specific ailment... and it seemed this too would never end.
I had to spend time investigating which formula's were good, which brands, why not this brand and not that one, heaps of time learning about the different herbal plants and what the benefits were, etc...
So time and money consuming, yet again, my health wasn't spectacular, and then one day, I woke up, walked into the kitchen and was disgusted to see all the bottles of supplements sitting there. I realized that this too is foolish, to be depending on supplements which after all didn't make me feel or look younger in the long run as the years passed by.
Oh sure, in the beginning there was some seemingly improvement, but that is just cause and effect in action...
Of course in the beginning there will be some changes, evident changes, but I found over the years that in fact I was popping the pills out of fear rather than out of celebration.
I became afraid to stop them, afraid of even a faster deterioration in my health, afraid of feeling lost, confused. Afraid of what would happen if I stopped, so I continued. Being motivated by fear is a foolish approach to health-care.
Luckily, I recognized and realized that on my own, and stopped with the supplements.
Ended up saving myself thousands of dollars (who knows, maybe tens of thousands of dollars spread over a lifetime)!
What they were selling were DAILYMENTS, not supplements.
And I didn't want dailyments for a lifetime, I wanted something to supplement what I was doing, support what I was doing, and then to end. I didn't want the cost to go on forever and I didn't want to have to do it daily, forever.
Diets were the same.
Anyone who has ever devoted themselves to a diet knows two things...
One, it is hard to devote oneself in a lasting manner, i.e., hard to sustain it both physically, mentally and emotionally. Secondly, they don't work. Plain and simple, diets are not an efficient way to attain great health, it's a farce, a fake proposal.
Just like me, you must have done quite a few diets in your lifetime, and the results are always the same... sooner or later one is back to square one.
Weight always comes back. Dieting is a mechanism that people get hooked on because of their desire and need to look good. It plays with our psychological makeup. It's a way for people to write books and make money, but in the long run I found out that everybody who has great health doesn't diet. Funny, but true. Diets in short are a waste of time, energy and effort.
And like you, I could go on and on with this list of things I did for my health prior to getting on a proper cleansing path. I was like a chicken running around with its head cut off.
Funny, I never set out to find cleansing. It basically found me. By accident. There is an old saying: the student finds the teacher when he is ready. In my case that was absolutely true.
But by the time cleansing found me, I was open and ready to give it a try simply because I was fed up with the system of health care that everyone was following- doctors, medications, drugs, exercising, diets, yoga, herbal supplements, and reading endless books which nine times out of ten ended up on my bookshelf without ever really changing my life in the long run or in a lasting manner.
I was fed up with the costs involved.
I was also fed up with the realization that I could be doing all those things for a lifetime, week in and week out, and still my health wasn't going to be spectacular... in fact, from 25 to 35 it declined a lot and I had made a lot of investments in it, time after time.
And that was frightening to say the least.
At 33 I was already thinking, my God, what is going to be with me at 55 or 60. And the realization sank in that I probably won't even live that long with the way things were declining, and the lifestyle I was living.
Getting back to the title of this post, EASY.
Of course, cleansing too required an investment, just like all those things in my above list. An investment of time, an investment of money, and an investment of effort and energy, but what I liked right off the bat was the fact that it was defined, time wise. Seven days for the formal cleansing.
I liked that right off the bat. Seven days of doing something intensively, seven days of effort and money spent, and then it was over. I liked that idea very much, especially when comparing to all the previous activities I did that seemed to go on forever...the gym, the yoga, and the supplements which were a week in and week out thing.
So it seemed easy.
What they didn't teach me, tell me, that is, if you want to really transform your health, it doesn't end after the seven days.
But they didn't need to tell me that, for if they did, they probably would not have made a sale, and that was their primary motivation, to make a sale. To get my money.
Nonetheless, something spectacular happened.
I learned that the immediate results that were so self evident far surpassed anything I had done previously, and all in just seven days only.
Seven days at the gym, seven days on supplements, seven days of yoga, seven days of jogging, seven days of biking or hiking, seven days in the hospital, seven days on vacation, on holiday, seven days of dieting, none of those actions or activities delivered 1/100th of what seven days of formal cleansing did, when properly cleansing- juice fasting, colon cleansing and home colonics combined.
And that was the beginning of this lifelong venture called Helping People Survive.
For simply put, once we know how to survive and take care of ourselves, the thriving part becomes quick and easy.
Cleansing properly, requires effort, investment and energy too... the formal cleansing, the seven days of juice fasting, colon cleansing and home colonics just sets the causes and conditions so that healing and rejuvenation can take place.
I discovered that only after a few months after my first cleanse...
And I realized it in the months after my second cleanse, and I started to study it in the months after my third cleanse, and I kept studying and practicing it in the months after my fourth, fifth and sixth cleanse and by the time I got around to my seventh cleanse, almost two years had passed, and I woke up one day with the realization that my life is fundamentally better, my life had become easy.
At HPS-online.com I decided in advance to lay out the path, simply because I see no reason in not making it clear right out the gate.
It didn't matter, and doesn't matter to me, if we make or lose a sale.
What mattered and still matters to me is with those people that start their cleansing with HPS-online, we must help them meet outstanding success in the long run.
We must show people not only how to get on this path, i.e., to do their first and second cleanse properly, but we must at the same time, show them how to stay on this path... i.e,, we MUST invest in them, in their post-cleansing and teach and guide them day in and day out, week in and week out, month in and month out at no extra costs to them.
The accent, the motto, the mantra became and still is- doing all this right, doing it properly so that the results will last for a lifetime.
Oh sure, the formal cleansing is important, and the results so satisfying, but the post-cleansing period is much much more important... that is where we learn to transform out health.
The formal cleansing sets the conditions, the post-cleansing is where we execute habit changes, it is where we learn and practice, it is where we become comfortable in our skin so that each time, when we go into our next cleanse, we know, we are entering it from a different space and perspective than the previous time, a fundamentally different space, feeling and level of health than a few months prior.
But the beauty of the post-cleansing in comparison to the gym, yoga, jogging, hiking, holidaying, etc, was that we can do it on our own, within the normal flow of life.
No where to go, no weekly meetings, no equipment and clothing to be constantly buying, no visits to clinics and stores.
We study on our own, at our pace and convenience, and we practice on our own. Practice goes on just by living, by being ourselves.
Throughout each day, day in and day out, we make decisions, choices.
Post-cleansing gives us an opportunity to make better decisions, decisions and choices that actually support our formal cleansing, which build on the conditions that were set in the formal cleansing. Post-cleansing allows us the space to bank on our investments in cleansing, to turn it all into a profitable venture.
In short, this became more logical, more sensible and more rewarding, and consequently EASIER than anything I had ever done before in my life for my health. More cost effective. Immediate results.
And best of all, the results were so self-evident. I was changing myself, right before my own very eyes.
And you can too!
So yea, cleansing PROPERLY isn't all that easy, but then again, anything of any value in life isn't.
Talk to you next week.
I'm looking forward to your comments and opinions, and your experiences so far in your life. Please do post your comments. The way I set the settings in this blog is that everyone can post, even anonymously.
Wishing you all the best!
Peace, love and light,

Welcome to the HPS-online blog
Greetings and welcome to the HPS-online.com,
Helping People Survive blog.
Opened on December 21, 2007.
It's about time we made this move into blogging.
For many years now our community at http://www.hpscleansing.com/group has been active with close to 49,000 posts at the time of writing this.
But, the discussions at our community are private, only open to people doing the HPS 7-Day Wonder online guided cleansing programs.
The reasons for limiting your access to the group were detailed here at this post at the group ->
http://hpscleansing.com/group/forumdisplay.php?f=64
Anyway, for years, I have had many subjects that I wanted to discuss with the general public, and now with this new blog, it can happen. I want to connect with you, hear your opinions, comments and ideas on all the different subjects I intend to post here at this blog.
Please note, I intend to do the majority of my posts by video.
That way I hope I can get my message across clearly while at the same time entertaining you. And then we can communicate back and forth by text. I hope this is OK with you.
I look forward to developing this new communication tool with you.
And I hope you will find a lot of benefit from participating with me. I hope we can learn from each other and share our knowledge so that all beings benefit.
Bottom line is once we all get the surviving part of life down, then it is relatively easy to move into the thriving part.
Wishing you all the best,
Peace, love and light,
